Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Christ or credit
What's the price? What's the edit?
I'm alive, I don't credit the source
I just drive, and then the fog rolls in
[Verse 2]
And then they're blind, my enemies
They're just tryin', tryin' to kill me
[Verse 3]
Breaking the waves again, and though I try
The ocean is strong, I cannot stem the tide
Breaking the waves again, and though I try
I can't seem to stem the tide, and though I try
I try
[Verse 4]
Try me two times
[Verse 5]
I've got the time
And it's been too long since I've been drivin' all night
On the back roads windin' under the stars
That are slowly dying, oh-no
[Verse 6]
Breaking the waves again
The ocean is strong, I cannot stem the tide
Breaking the waves again, and though I try
I can't seem to stem the tide, and though I try
I try
[Verse 7]
Jack knifed, on the side street crossin'
I'm still alive, and that's somethin'
And when I die, there will be nothing to say
Except I tried not to waste another day
Tryin' to stem the tide
